"It is said that the police have been searching for more than a day since yesterday but have not been able to find Tomosaki Tanaka," Mitsuhiko said to the rest of the Junior Detective Corps as he walked out of the department store. "I don't know where he fled to."

"He obviously escaped with the corpse, there is no reason why he can escape the search." Conan also looked helpless. (Conan couldn't have discovered the truth, and the only thing he needed to find the truth was to see the corpse still sleeping.) But the corpse had already been put away after Chiba left. ）

"Ahh Yuan Tai suddenly flipped through his schoolbag in a panic, "It's over!" My Kamen Superman Signature! ”

"Kamen Superman?" Qian Yu was stunned for a moment, and then reacted. "In that Kamen Superman stage show you watched on the top floor, the Kamen Superman actor gave you an autograph??"

"That's right," Conan glanced at Motota. "You were buying books at the time, so I didn't know."

"This is the 555555 I want to keep it a treasure for the rest of my life—" Yuan Tai said dejectedly.

"You didn't come down upstairs with your autograph, you only had a hot dog when I saw you." The corners of Chiha's mouth twitched. "So it should have landed on the top floor, right?"

"I remember, Mrs. Yuan, you went to buy a hot dog with your signature, right?" Conan looked at Motota. "Did you lose it at the hot dog seller?"

"Ahh Yes! Yuan Tai suddenly remembered. I just left it there! I must get the treasure back! ”

"It closes at six, and it's five forty-eight now, are you serious?" Qian Yu glanced at his watch and asked.

"Twelve minutes is enough! A treasure is a treasure, and I have to bring it back! After saying that, Yuan Tai ran in the direction of the department store.

"Shall we go?" Chiba looked at the others.

"Yuan Taidu is gone, of course we have to go!" After Mitsuhiko finished speaking, he followed.

“。。。” Qian Yu watched the others follow one by one, and sighed. "Okay, okay...

。。。

"Twelve minutes, is that enough?" Seeing that the anti-theft roller shutter door in front of him was completely closed, Qian Yu frowned and asked Yuan Tai in an unkind tone.

"No... Excuse me... Yuan Tai scratched his head very weakly.

"So what do we do now? Do you have to wait until tomorrow morning to get out? Mitsuhiko said distressedly.

"Let's go to the security room and talk to him, he should let us out." Conan pointed to the diagram next to him, which stated that the security room was on the second basement floor.

As the group walked up the stairs, Chiha's gaze swept over the payphones, and then focused on the payphones—although the light coming in from the windows wasn't too strong, they could at least see that the phone lines connected to the three payphones seemed to be broken.

One of Qianyu's nerves immediately tensed, and the traceless umbrella that was originally placed in the side pocket of the schoolbag was immediately taken out and held in his hand. The phone lines of the three public telephones were naturally disconnected, which is definitely a very small probability event, so small that it can be directly considered man-made.

"The footsteps are all light, stay vigilant," Qian Yu thought of this and whispered to the others. "The phone lines of the pay phones seem to have been cut, something is not right."

"Phone line?" Conan was stunned, looked at the stairs in front of him, and then thought about it. "Ayumi Mitsuhiko Motota, you guys are waiting here now, if there is a sound of footsteps coming from below, come and tell us quietly, don't make a sound! Qianyu, come with me to have a look. (If it's footsteps coming from the other side, then Conan himself can hear them, and they don't need to be reminded.) ）

Chiba and Conan tiptoed to the phone, only to find that not only the three telephones, but all six public telephones had their lines cut off.

"The section is smooth." Qian Yu touched the phone line port with his hand, and there was a hint of solemnity in his tone.

"Artificial," Conan frowned, looking around. "I also don't feel like it's right."

"Now the question is, why would they do this ... Oh yes, let's find a place to hide first, just in case. Qian Yu pondered, but suddenly remembered that the focus right now should be on protecting the others, not on what was going on.

"You hide first," Conan said, touching his watch. "Look at them, please."

Conan really attaches great importance to Qianyu - just like Qianyu thinks that Conan is the person who can communicate with him the most; After living on campus in the past few days, Conan also feels that Qianyu is the only person who can resonate with him. He is mature and steady, not almost naïve like other little ones. In the tragic years when he became smaller, Qianyu was definitely his best spiritual partner.

"Can your self-defense weapon still work?" Qian Yu glanced at the phone line cut again. "If there are outlaws, they have at least knives in their hands to cut telephone lines, and once we are contained, we have almost no chance of winning."

Chiba knew that Conan had some weapons that could be used to fight against adults, such as the anesthetic needle on his watch that Conan used yesterday to make Akira, who had been trying to escape all the way and almost scratch Motota's clothes, fall asleep; There are also a pair of ingenious shoes that used to kick the soccer ball used in physical education class from the equipment room to the class field dozens of meters away in one go. These two items, which are said to have been invented by the great inventor Dr. Asasa, have combat power that can definitely deal with one or two adults. But firstly, it is still unknown whether there are additional anesthetic needles in the watch or in Conan's hand, and secondly, since those shoes have such powerful abilities, they must consume a lot of energy, so can the energy stored in these shoes allow Conan to fight against possible outlaws?

"I can also use my shoes twice and have an anesthetic needle in my watch. Even if you are discovered, you can still do it with your whole body. Conan beckoned Chiba to go back to Genta's side together. Motota,Mitsuhiko,Ayumi,Listen to me carefully... ”

。。。

On the first floor, there is a clothing store.

There are four rows of shelves with clothes hanging from the store, one of which is embedded in the wall. In the shadow of clothes and walls, a figure is looking out.

Motota, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko had already taken refuge in the fitting room on the inside of the store, while Chiba was watching every move outside.

———— Qianyu's thoughts went back to a few minutes ago.

"We need to find a place where you are absolutely safe first." Conan took Qianyu and the others to this clothing store and told Qianyu. "I understand this store, they are all old employees for more than ten years, they are very good, and it is unlikely that they will be in the same stream, so this is definitely not a hidden place that uninvited guests will choose. Uninvited guests attack this place for nothing more than profit, and the best choice for profit is the jewelry and gold and silver upstairs, so this kind of clothing store is definitely not a point that robbers will explore, you take them to hide here, and wait for me to investigate the specific situation before making a district. ”

———— mind back to the present.

"But then again," Thousand Feathers smuttered. "Actually, it's possible that these are just my own unfounded worries... It would be embarrassing if it was just a false alarm. ”

A short figure appeared in Chiba's line of sight, and Conan was seen walking in Chiha's line of sight, pointing to the ceiling with his left hand and pointing down to the right with his right hand.
